On Saturday power steering went out while I was turning into a gas station in the afternoon. Drove it back to the hotel and left it parked over night and next morning Sunday power steering started working again. Later that Sunday night I left to go to the grocery store and power steering stopped working again. Then Monday morning I went to work and power steering worked again. No more issues since then and that was in December of 2020, now yesterday 3/11/21, power steering goes out intermittently goes out while driving when I'm making a sharp turn or corner then while I'm driving straight the power steering comes back on. Very scary and dangerous when it happens while driving. If the truck is stationary and I turn the steering wheel hard in one direction or the other the power steering goes up and comes right back. I have a video of it going out when I was sitting in a parking spot when I turn the steering wheel it goes out. But I can't upload a video.

My steering has been getting stiff lately, on both right and left turns as I'm driving. My husband first noticed it about a week and a half ago. My ball joints and tire rods are in excellent condition, no uneven wear on my tires. It's all just in the steering wheel. My husband looked up the previous recall on the truck back in 2016 on the steering, he is noticing the same thing happen as listed in that recall. However there is no recall on my steering. I'm not sure if that recall had ever been done or not but something is going on with my truck.

The vehicle's air suspension system suddenly failed during driving. The air suspension system controls the ride height of the vehicle, and the ride height also impacts the vehicle's steering alignment. My understanding is that the issue is that the nitrogen air suspension system performs a self-check upon start-up and purges a small volume of air and ingests outside air, which contains moisture. During the winter months, this moisture gets into the suspension's compressor, and causes premature failure due to freezing. The cost of repair/replacement for this air suspension compressor is $1200, and will fail again when the same cycle repeats. Chrysler/Ram is aware of the issue, and there are tsb's about air suspension issues, and multiple customer care cases, but they refuse to issue a recall. If this system fails during driving it can cause a sudden loss of control due to vehicle geometry changes. I was on a highway when this happened, and had to pull over to the side of the road, as the warning said seek "immediate repair" of the air suspension system. I contacted Chrysler, which acknowledged the issue, and opened a case, but later denied the case. This issue is documented among many other Chrysler air ride suspension vehicle equipped owners. The only recourse is to replace the system with like parts (which fails again), or to swap the air ride system for traditional coils and spring suspension, which is costly. The air ride system is a costly factory upgrade. Had Chrysler disclosed issues with said system, I would not have purchased it, especially since this issue is most problematic for cold climate owners, where temperatures dip below freezing. One need merely google, "Chrysler air suspension failure" and it returns "about 1,260,000 results".

When outside temperatures are below 20 degrees the power steering does not work. After the motor warms up I can turn the engine off and restart and then the power steering will work

My power steering went out. If I warmed the truck up and shift it off, then restarted it the steering would work again. Then the vehicles steering would go out while driving. The check engine light turned on and then the steering light. Now the power steering doesn't work at all. I am told from a mechanic who hooked up to my computer that this is an extremely rare incident for a truck so young. At this time I am being told it is not a recall but it certainly seems like a recall to me. The power steering would go out while driving on a road or highway going straight or turning.

Electric steering quits working and the steering wheel gets hard to turn, it'll be fine then all of a sudden it'll quit while turning or driving straight

- Brighton, IL, USA

Power steering not safe, locked up. Reacts the same way a power steering pump would act of low or blown. In research looks like there was already a recall for same years and models for this same thing but mine wasn't included. However my steering locked up and hard to turn. Not safe.

- South Weber, UT, USA

Power steering failed to work intermittently. Loss of power steering was more prevalent during freezing conditions. This has caused unsafe driving conditions and was experienced while the vehicle was both in a stationary position and in motion. The certified Ram dealership stated the cause was a faulty power steering gear box.

Power steering constantly is going in and out. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes every other turn, and sometimes every turn is half power steering and half not (kind of like pulsing). I've had 2 rack and pinion replacements with still ongoing issues. There is an active recall for my year truck, but my truck is not apart of it even though I'm experiencing the exact issues of the recall

The air suspension on my 2015 Ram 1500 has been failing (blowing fuses while driving, freezing up and failing to inflate before startup) each winter for the past three years. As mentioned above, the system can fail while operating the vehicle, due to blown fuses from an electrical short in the system. It also can just fail to inflate on cold days. The system apparently was not installed with an air drying capability causing these issues above and this should be expected in colder climates. The air suspension is a 'closed' system, but was built is capable of pulling in air from the outside under certain conditions (meaning it is not a closed system). Given the fact this ability was incorporated into the system, an air drying system should have been included as well. It is a critical safety concern when the system fails to inflate the air suspension and fca should have known it would fail. I would like to see a recall reimbursing people for the costs associated with fixing failures of this system (compressor and air bag failures) as well as the installation of a remedy (full replacement) to permanently fix the system.

Power steering has started to turn hard at times when turning corners. It will turn a little bit fine and then become extremely hard to turn for about 6 inches on the steering wheel. It will do this 3 times or so depending on how sharp you try to turn. It happen a couple times last month then went away and drove fine. Today it started again. I wasn't sure I was going to get turned. It has not gone away as of now. I just went out and checked. We stationary you can feel it grabbing a little. While driving in the city it can be very tough to turn. I haven't tried to make any sharp turns at highway speeds but after exiting the interstate on an exit ramp with a curve. After turning the wheel a few inches I can feel more tension than normal. I believe this to be a faulty electronic power steering assist that I see there is a recall on but not on my truck.
